系统学与生物多样性是研究整个有机体生物学的学科。这是一份由Taylor & Francis为伦敦自然历史博物馆出版的季度性、国际性、同行评议的生命科学杂志，不收费。发表的标准是科学价值。系统学和生物多样性通过具有广泛背景(而不是单一物种描述)的分类学论文记录了所有自然门中生物的多样性，同时也讨论了与生物收集和系统学原则有关的主题问题。它特别强调了分类学的重要性和多学科意义，其贡献涉及其他领域对分类学的影响，或通过分类学知识促进我们对其他领域的理解，特别是在所有分类学级别上与生物多样性的性质、起源和保护有关的知识。该杂志不发表单一物种描述，专著或应用研究或阿尔法物种描述。分类学手稿必须包括现代方法，如分支学或系统发育分析。每期杂志都有一个主要部分专门介绍经过同行评审的正式原始研究论文，还有一个更短、更非正式的“观点”部分。以及分类发现、描述、修订和录音,适应的研究部分进行研究,解剖学,生物多样性模式在时间和空间(包括应对环境和人为因素,以及全球变化)、生物地理学、共同进化、生物保护、发展、进化生物学、功能形态、生长和形式,分子科学、系统发生学,支序分类学、物种形成、系统生态学。也欢迎关于系统学理论和实践的知识状态综述和论文。没有对作者的地理位置、他们的材料和研究领域，或他们的研究馆藏的机构位置的限制。“观点”部分涵盖了与主体部分类似的主题，但也提供了辩论、评论和书评的空间。

Systematics and Biodiversity is devoted to whole-organism biology. It is a quarterly, international, peer-reviewed, life science journal, without page charges, which is published by Taylor & Francis for The Natural History Museum, London. The criterion for publication is scientific merit. Systematics and Biodiversity documents the diversity of organisms in all natural phyla, through taxonomic papers that have a broad context (not single species descriptions), while also addressing topical issues relating to biological collections, and the principles of systematics. It particularly emphasises the importance and multi-disciplinary significance of systematics, with contributions which address the implications of other fields for systematics, or which advance our understanding of other fields through taxonomic knowledge, especially in relation to the nature, origins, and conservation of biodiversity, at all taxonomic levels. The journal does not publish single species descriptions, monographs or applied research nor alpha species descriptions. Taxonomic manuscripts must include modern methods such as cladistics or phylogenetic analysis. Each issue contains a main section devoted to formal peer-reviewed original research papers, and a shorter, more informal 'Perspective' section. As well as taxonomic discovery, description, revision and recording, the research section carries studies of adaptation, anatomy, biodiversity patterns in time and space (including response to environmental and human factors, and to global change), biogeography, coevolution, conservation biology, development, evolutionary biology, functional morphology, growth and form, molecular science, phylogenetics, cladistics, speciation, and systematic ecology. State-of-knowledge reviews and papers on the theory and practice of systematics are also welcome. There are no restrictions on the geographical location of authors, their material and study areas, or on the institutional locations of their studied collections. The 'Perspective' section covers a similar range of subjects to the main section, but gives scope for debate and comment as well as reviews of books.
